All-rounder Ellyse Perry became the first Australian to claim 300 wickets and score 5000 runs at the international level during the one-off pink-ball Test against India which ended in a deadlock. A chunk of the action was taken away by rain, forcing hands to be shaken at the Carrara Oval. Perry achieved her historic double when Beth Mooney took a brilliant, diving catch in the gully to dismiss Pooja Vastrakar for 13 as she fancied the drive. The major milestone of an illustrious 14-year career underscores Perry’s impact on women’s cricket.
Career average of 86.62. Once dismissed in her last 1016 balls
